A sleeper sofa provides additional sleeping accommodations. - Main level: Wood walls and beamed ceilings create an open floor plan that is perfect for entertainment and family togetherness. Curl up in the comfy leather furniture and wooden rocking chair as the gas fireplace keeps you toasty warm from within its stone hearth. As a single-level home, Bear's Den Log Cabin offers the ideal setup for small families or a couple's retreat. Even the bathrooms give you cozy luxury, with a Jacuzzi soaking tub and walk-in shower in each. - Bear's Den Log Cabin comes with WiFi, AC, and streaming-enabled TVs. - All vacation rentals include a complimentary starter pack with soaps, one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, a roll of paper towels in the kitchen, dishwasher pods, and trash bags. -------------------------------------------- Outdoor Spaces: - Bear's Den is a natural oasis, with a large sun deck in the back that features a hot tub, propane grill, and furniture perfect for lounging and dining. - Relax on the front deck swing, with even more porch furniture for relaxing. The front deck is covered, so you can watch the natural world go by in any weather. - A large, grassy deck gives kids and dogs the space to frolic. Plus, an outdoor firepit with ample seating makes this yard the place to be, day or night. -------------------------------------------- Local Surroundings: - Bear's Den gives you a central location that is just over 20 minutes to either West Jefferson or Boone, with Blue Ridge Parkway access points 10 minutes away. - Head to downtown West Jefferson for an authentic small-town experience, with charming shops and delightful restaurants. Breweries like New River Brewery and Boondocks Brew Haus are great for trying local craft beers, while Old Barn Winery and Vineyards gives you a taste of wine in the High Country. You have to take the time out to visit Ashe Co. Cheese Factory while in town for free samples of homemade cheese and a tour of the factory and cheese-making process. - In Boone, the home of Appalachian State University, you can embody the Mountaineer spirit. Catch a football game in the fall, or you can find live music events throughout the year at venues like Boone Saloon, Lost Province Downtown Brewpub, and App State's Schaefer Center. - The nearby New River lets you enjoy all kinds of fun on the water, including swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and tubing. If you don't have your own equipment, venture out to one of the local outfitters to rent boats and tubes, such as Zaloos Canoes in Jefferson or Riverside Canoe & Tube Rentals in Crumpler. - During the spring and summer, the Blue Ridge Parkway is the place to be, with dozens of overlooks and hiking trails to choose from. When the parkway truly shines, however, is during autumn. The fall foliage famously brings in thousands of visitors every year to admire the vibrant red, yellow, and orange colors that sweep over the mountain ranges and bring the High Country to life. - Winter can be just as fun, especially when it snows. If you're in the mood for a wintertime adventure, head up to Appalachian Ski Mountain in Boone for skiing, snowboarding, snow tubing, and ice skating. -------------------------------------------- Important Notes: - Pet Policy: Dogs Welcome, two-dog limit.
